I figured most people knew the difference, or at least anybody who spent any kind of time in East TN. There is literally no way those guys came up with Roy D. Mercer on their own. I wish Bean's family would sue, though I can see how it may be hard to win.
Ya know, I've heard them both, been at least 20 years since I've heard either. I remember they're being an original and a knockoff. I thought the original was Roy Mercer. At any rate. Funny stuff.
